INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
BLEEDING OF POWER STEERING SYSTEM
1. Check the fluid level, and add fluid if necessary.
2. Turn the steering wheel fully in both directions 5
times (engine not running).
3. Recheck the fluid level. If the level has lowered,
add fluid, and repeat from step 1.
86U10X-021
4. Start the engine, and run it at idle.
5. Turn the steering wheel fully in both directions 5
times to bleed air from the system.
6. Check that the fluid is not foamy and the fluid lev-
el has not lowered.
If a problem is found, add fluid as necessary and
repeat from step 5.
Note
If bleeding is not done completely, the follow-
ing problems may appear:
• Foamy fluid on level gauge.
• Noise from power steering oil pump.

4WS PERFORMANCE INSPECTION
1. Steering Angle Transfer Shaft Alignement
(Simple inspection)
(1) Put masking tape on the steering wheel and
column cover.
(2) Drive the vehicle on a straight, flat road for at
least 30 m (18.6 ft) and note the steering wheel
position. Stop and mark the straight-ahead po-
sition on the steering wheel and column cover
tape. Drive the vehicle again and check the
marks.
(3) With the marks between the steering wheel and
column cover aligned, check that the rear
wheels do not turn off center when the engine
is started.
(4) If the rear wheels move, adjust the steering an-
gle transfer shaft.
(Inspection by dial indicator)
(1) Mark between the steering wheel and column
cover as shown above.
(2) Attach a scale on the column cover as shown
in the illustration.

(8) The center position can be determined from
the left/right measurements in (5) and (7) above.
Example:
Right rotation.... 10 mm (0.39 in)
Left rotation....8 mm (0.31 in)
Center = Right 1 mm (0.04 in)
(9) Check that the center is within specification.
Specification
= R 5 mm (0.4 in ) to L 5 mm (0.4 in)
(10) If not correct, adjust the steering angle trans-
fer shaft.
2. Steering Inspection
With the vehicle stopped and the engine running,
check that the rear wheels turn in the opposite
direction when the steering wheel is turned and that
there is no abnormal noise.

3.4WS Electric System Inspection
Drive the vehicle and check that the 4WS warning
light does not come on at over 40 km/h (25mph).

Rack bushing
1. Install the rack bushing assembly in the rack
housing.
Tightening torque:
88—98 N m (9—10 m-kg, 65—72 ft-lb)
Note
The oil seal is pushed to the correct position
in the rack housing by the tightening of the
rack bushing.

2. Stake the rack housing at two points approx 1.5
mm (0.06 in) from the end with a hammer and
center punch.
86U10X-160
Hermetic inspection
1. Connect the SST to the cylinder housing.
2. Connect a vacuum pump to the SST.
3. Apply 400 mmHg (15.7 inHg) vacuum.
4. Verify that vacuum is held for at least 30 sec. If
not, check the seal and assembly.
86U10X-161
Lower bearing
1. Secure the gear housing in a vise so that the low-
er bearing bore faces upward.
2. Apply ATF to the lower bearing, then install it in
the housing.
3. Press the bearing into the gear housing with the
housing cover. Tighten the cover until the tighten-
ing force suddenly increases.

OIL PUMP
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Jack up the front of the vehicle, and support it with safety stands.
2. Remove in the order shown in the figure, referring to the removal note for specially marked parts.
3. Install in the reverse order of removal.
4. Tighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque, referring to the figure.
Note
a) The power steering fluid will leak out when the return hose or the pressure hose is dis-
connected. Prepare a suitable container for it to drain into.
b) After installation, inspect the deflection of the oil pump belt and bleed the air from the
system, then check for fluid leakage. 2WS (Gasoline engine)

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The power steering control unit contains a self-diagnosis function to detect malfunctions within itself,
the ECPS electrical components and circuits.
If a malfunction is detected, the control unit indicates where the problem is located by outputting specific
voltage pulsations at terminal wire (YB) of the check connector.
Troubleshooting of the ECPS system, then, is easily performed by comparing the output pattern with
those of the Diagnosis Table on pages 10—89 and 90. 76G10X-019
TROUBLESHOOTING
How To Use Self-Diagnosis System
By using the control unit's self-diagnosis function and
a voltmeter, malfunctions of the system are easily de-
termined. When diagnosing malfunctions, follow the
steps below.
1. Connect a voltmeter to terminal wire (YB) of the
check connector in the engine compartment.
2. Check the output patterns as described on the fol-
lowing page.

Self-Diagnosis Function
The four-wheel steering (4WS) control unit contains a self-diagnosis function to detect malfunctions
within itself, the 4WS electrical components and circuits.
If a malfunction is detected, the control unit indicates where the problem is located and the 4WS warn-
ing light in the instrument cluster will flash for one minute with a specific pattern,
Troubleshoot the 4WS system according to the following flow chart.
